<p>Contains three practice questions. A custom-written, differentiated resource (with mark schemes) to work on Edexcel iGCSE French (from 2017) Paper 2, Question 8. This is the grammar “gap-fill” exercise.</p> <p>Note that, unlike the actual exam question (which is for all candidates, at the end of Paper 2), I have differentiated each of the practice questions to target particular CWAGs/Target Grades. I have done this in order to boost confidence (going from Practice 1 to Practice 2, for example), but also in order that the activity can be expanded upon: maybe to feature some highlighting of verbs/subjects etc and a good segue into some of the trickier grammar points at the appropriate level. Could be used as a starter or spread across a whole lesson for revision.</p> <p>I couldn’t find any of these resources anywhere for iGCSE French, so decided to put one together myself. Feedback most welcome. Many thanks!</p>

The lessons could also be adapted for A level teaching or can be made more difficult for high achievers - I have given a couple of ideas for this within the Powerpoint, labelled clearly as ‘STRETCH/A LEVEL LESSON OPPORTUNITY’.</p> <p>‘Areas’ covered within this sequence of lessons:</p> <ul> <li>Story openings</li> <li>Genre</li> <li>Imaginative writing</li> <li>Themes</li> <li>Plot</li> <li>Structure</li> <li>Inference/interpretation</li> </ul> <p>The story ‘Iridescent Adolescent’, by Phoebe Roy, can be found in English and Media Centre’s publication by the same name, <em>Iridescent Adolescent</em>, which is a collection of diverse short stories.</p> <p>The resource is in the form of a Powerpoint which is ready to go! Teacher’s notes are within the Powerpoint, both within the ‘Notes’ pane and on some hidden slides.</p> <p>If you like this resource, please leave a review.
